Remember When the night falls And the lights go out As I lie in bed I hear a voice “Remember” Then we recall All our days of doubt And how God spoke in a still small voice “Remember”
Remember
Jealousy
Jealousy rears its ugly head A ram-like creature with two horns Disbelief & Dissatisfaction One hits you straight in the spine Crumpling & crumbling your security & stature The central column & core of your life Can fall out of
Greenhouse Ministries Videos
Since last October, I’ve been on staff at Poplar Creek Church in Bartlett, IL as the Director of Children’s Ministries– though now we are called Greenhouse Ministries- “Helping Children and Families Grow in the Love of God.” I’ve put together
“Fine.”
Solutions for being unable to sleep Too many thoughts? Write them down. Too many worries? Pray them away. Too much light? Flip a switch. Too full bladder? Empty it out. Too much mess? Clean it up. Too many plans? Think
If There’s Love
The art of the heart is a music unheard of Sweet song beyond psychology, psychiatry and reason Fire inside The heart has reasons that Reason doesn’t even know Gracing Presence The heart sings with rumbling that few souls hear Purpose
Hutchmoot 2014
After months of silence, I’m back at EvanWeppler.com. Just had a trip to my third Hutchmoot and wanted to write a post- but as I tend to be more wordy and rambling and go on and on (like now), I
Weary
My mind is tired. After almost 20 years of schooling, I’m ready to be done. I joke with the kiddos at church often, saying that I’m in 20th grade, or something along those lines. This is usually followed by: “And
“Be Cool.”
I just want to be loved, be liked, be accepted, “be cool.” I swear, this has been a pursuit for my entire life. “Being Cool– The NeverEnding Quest.” More like “Being Cool– The NeverSatisfying Quest.” ~:~ Heck, let’s be honest–
3 Movies To See- March 2014
So in the past couple of weeks, I’ve seen three fantastic films that I would love to recommend to you, my family and friends. I’m not a great reviewer, but I will do my best to help you get a
In Christ You Are: The Song
Who else learns best through music? Well, as I’m talking about this icur project, I wanted to have a song that represented the themes of our identity in Christ. It’s not perfect… maybe one of these days someone will help
Memories & Objects
Over the years, we’ve had computers, external hard drives, flash drives, thumb drives, CDs, DVDs, CD-Rs, CD-RWs, Mini-CDs, memory cards, SD cards, MicroSD cards, 3.5 Floppy Disks, Floppy Disks, and more… and now, of course, we have “The Cloud”– or
icur: The What
Teresa, a saint with her love and her doubts, said it best: “We can do no great things, only small things with great love.” Perhaps you and I can’t create a culture of good news, good works, and goodness found in Christ (though isn’t
The Four
It’s somewhat fascinating. What is it about the structure of four that it is so recurring? There are all sorts of different groupings– a duo, a triad, and of course a quartet. I think it’s interesting to look them over
Wilt Thou Forgive?
I found this hymn years ago and loved the lyrics– who hasn’t had these fears and storms within? I put it to new chords and finally made a recording– poor, I know, but I’m happy it’s somewhere other than my
Movies and the Mystery of Camp
I love camp movies. And I hate camp movies. No, I don’t mean “camp” as in “an aesthetic sensibility that regards something as appealing or humorous because of its ridiculousness to the viewer” as Wikipedia puts it (though I do enjoy
What’s In My Pocket? – March 2014
Pocket is a Google Chrome extension (also available for other browsers) that allows you to save interesting links, videos, articles, etc. that you come across over time but don’t have time to read at the moment. It’s better than simply a bookmark, because
icur: The Why
Who are you? We get this question on a daily basis, in word and glance and attitude and within. We answer and identify ourselves by our appearance, our occupation, our age and race and economic status and educational background, where
Try
Yoda said, “Do or do not. There is no try.” I disagree. Sometimes, all you have is try. For “good enough” parents. For cancer patients, living on hope. For the depressed man, mustering all his strength to simply get out
